Just don't introduce her to Gwen Stefani. She defines the earworm, and not in a good way. There have been times I have instructed my kid to immediately start playing his rap offerings if she comes on the radio. Heh. I'm starting to like them, so it's good the kid is leaving soon, don't want to interfere with his "cool" factor. I never told him that when he would morosely go to his "safe room" and blast music, I actually enjoyed both his morose absence, and the music he was playing. It seemed best.

My wife LOVES the fact that I just bought the new Five Finger Death Punch Album, :eek:.
They've got a great Blue On Black cover on it, don't judge. I'm old, not dead. :thumbs:

That's good to know. Might give it a try.

I figured out it was only the rubber tip of the plunger that got melted. I ended up pouring the pineapple into the syringe from the top with my finger on the end of the needle, then pouring it out into the bottle. Just using the syringe like a measuring cylinder. Messy and inaccurate but it worked.

Even then the tartness of the juice was more than I could handle vaping. Tried all sorts to tone it down but nothing worked.
HS pineapple is sweeter but not too sweet. Purilum golden PA is a pretty mellow PA. WF(SC) is my favorite full flavored with a tart back note. Cap Golden PA is more candyish.

When my kid came home with ICP I told him if I heard it, I’d break all his CDs. Only thing worse than rap is country. That .... makes me homicidal. Otherwise I’ll listen to almost anything.

So, strange happenings yesterday.....
I use SS316l in power mode. It can be a pain if you're using it on a mod that has a reactive power output. Meaning it's power output is based on real time resistance readings.
I've actually given away several mods because they do this.
My beloved old VTC Mini doesn't do this, or never has before.
I usually run a coil around .5 to .6 ohm.
I decided to add a couple wraps to my coil to lower amp draw and add some surface area.
coils came out to .88 ohm, loved the vape.
Now it doesn't read real time resistance, but after a few vapes and the SS rises in resistance it will slowly show a higher resistance and then return to the base resistance after it cools.
Got curious so I made an identical coil for the Zeus and put it on the Joyetech Espion Solo because it also always just sees the base resistance.
Same behavior. It's not a big deal, but wonder if I found a glitch in Joyetech FW?
Want to wrap one of my usual .5 or .6 to see if it stops, but my CDO insists I use the new coils for a bit.
Can't waste 10 cents of wire immediately, now can we? :lol:

Edit: I wonder if the wicking isn'y keeping up with the added surface area and therefore hindering cooling somewhat, and that's causing it?
How many licks does it take to get to center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop?

I quit listening to country about 15 years ago, long story, and glad I did. This new 'pop' country is not my thing.
I would try to let my girls listen to a couple of their 'rap', or whatever you wanna call it songs, every now and again on road trips, but it makes me angry. Don't know why, it just does. Bitc#es and hoes, blah, blah, blah.
No wonder our youth are so angry and violent.

Agree, but worse in my eyes than the disrespect, violence, and profanity ( I’m all about profanity, I f bomb 50 times before morning coffee!) is the outrageous lack of talent coupled with the sheer arrogance. You can be arrogant when you don’t suck. Or you can suck OR be arrogant. Don’t do both though.

My response is actually kinda strange, it's almost Pavlovian. I actually get mentally and physically angry.
Then again, I don't have issues, I have subscriptions. :eek:

I did the same thing over one rap CD my son had. He was about 17 (He's turning 40 next month.) The rap he was listening to had such a disrespectful attitude towards women that I told him that if I ever heard it again I would break it into little pieces.

I prefer angry heavy metal personally. I've found that it appeals to people who have anger inside that needs a release. It's good for people who hold things in instead of acting out.

Or maybe I'm just talking about me.

Makes perfect sense to me.
I resemble that remark.........allegedly. ;)

The Joytech chipset does read and display live resistance in real time, but it doesn't change voltage supplied unless it is in a temperature control mode.

Arctic Fox is your friend. It addresses a few bugs in even the updated Joyetech firmwares. The most important fix was turning off the logic that kicks you out of TC when an exotic wire coil doesn't change x Ohms after y cycles with z amps on the circuit.

His favorite couch in spare room got covered for painting, not sure if he's mad or pouting. He's diabolical that way.

Can I have your dog???? CUTE
NO!!! Lol

My vet asked, when I first got her, if I intended to breed her. She is adamant about fixing your dog, no unwanted litters, as am I. So I knew when she asked, she wanted one lol.

I told her, spaying as soon as she’s old enough. My luck she’d have 14 puppies. And I’d keep them all.

I must have had a traumatic experience with rhubarb as a child because even the smell of it makes me wretch.

I had one last year for a bit and traded it for something and then traded the something for something else. CCI and SpeedyBuilt gear are pervasive in this part of the world. Not a week passes without something from one or both of those local outfits offered on a local Facebook B/S/T group.
I see SpeedyBuilt mods all the time on FB with the famous laser engraving. Good to see CCI under new management, the old stuff's QC was a little lacking.
